That is a hybrid method that I didn’t even think about. Buy your own domain for $12 a year, then redirect it to a free WordPress site you’ve created. Not a bad solution for a beginner.

Seems like I’ve already found my next topic to interrogate Grok about: Building an E-Mail list.
But before we move on, let’s focus on creating (and in my case: improving) an indie author website.

I had to steer Grok in a different direction, as it always wanted me to cover writing the first draft of my next book. I’m doing that anyway. And most of the questions I could ask about that would just lead to answers that we’ve already gotten from Grok.
Thus, I manually changed the topic. Building a website for authors is next. Grok should have great advice for that.

I asked Grok where to go next. It used the last days as a springboard for the reply. Thus writing a full novel with the Save The Cat! method was the answer. I wanted to do that anyway, but I’m going to report on it daily on Twitter as well (idea generation, outlining, writing the draft, editing, translating, cover design, publishing).
The goal is to have an entire project out there, start to finish, with my current method and the Save The Cat! outline added.
But to have Grok steer me in a new direction with the overall 5-year-project, I’ll have to be more specific with tomorrow’s question.
